MEET ERICA!
Born and raised in San Jose, CA, I have worked professionally in the TV/Film/Commercial world since the age of 5, earning my SAG-AFTRA Membership at the age of 8. I have performed in professional theaters around the country and earned my Bachelor of Dance Performance from the prestigious Oklahoma City University.
I am a signed actor/model in Northern California with J.E. Talent in San Francisco and have worked with various companies in the entertainment industry. (SEE BELOW)
From my many years on set, on a stage or in a studio, I have learned to focus on positivity, inclusivity, and professionalism. My dance style is heavily influenced by the art of storytelling and the ability to reach out and connect with my audience through dance, song and acting. I believe that dance is the strongest form of communication.

MY VALUES
Kindness
I lead with kindness in my craft, in my work and in my personal life. Kindness allows passion to reach its full potential and spreads love.
Respect
Respect. A strong word for a value that I hold near to my heart.
I respect myself as an artist. In return, I give respect to my fellow artists. I give respect to teachers and educators. I give respect to directors, choreographers, stage managers and crew. And even the opportunities given to me.
Creativity
I love art. All forms of it, from singing, dancing, performing, art class, you name it. Surrounding myself with other's creative works inspires me to recognize alternatives, communicate with others, and grow as an artist.
